Apple Silicon (M1) Desktop Sync Compatibility

Hi all,
Native Apple silicon support is now fully available. All users with Apple silicon devices will receive the native version of Dropbox automatically. If you would like to update your device manually, you can do so by clicking on the latest Stable Build and downloading the Offline Installer (Apple Silicon) file. For more information, visit the Dropbox Help Center.If you need assistance with anything else, please feel free to create a new thread and our community team will be happy to assist.
I just saw this on my Apple News feed, guess it's going viral. No wonder my company switched from Dropbox to Apple iCloud. How can you not be updated for M1 support. Rosetta is not a permanent option, it's only a 2 year transition, once they cut support that means Dropbox won't work anymore on Apple Silicon. Remember the old Rosetta only lasted about 2 years also during the switch from PPC to Intel.
Even Google Drive supports native M1 already and OneDrive is in the works. And we're basing this on votes, that's a poor decision by a supposed top company...
